HP StorageWorks RDX Overview and Features

THE SIMPLE WAY TO PROTECT YOUR BUSINESS DATA

Backup made easy: The HP RDX Removable Disk Backup System drag-and-drop file
access makes backup as simple and convenient as the click of a mouse. For a
“hands-free” backup experience, use the HP RDX Continuous Data Protection
Software designed for ease-of-use and with complete workstation and server
backup protection.

Spend less time on backups: Backup data at fast hard
drive speeds (up to 108 GB/hr) and restore critical files in seconds instead of
hours with random disk access.

Plug-and-play implementation: Easily connect the USB docking station
internally to a server, rack‑mount kit, or externally as a tabletop. Insert
a removable disk cartridge into the docking station and the cartridge
automatically appears as a letter drive in Windows Explorer with no extra
steps or formatting.

REDUCES TOTAL COST OF PROTECTING YOUR BUSINESS DATA

Affordable cost of ownership: Lower on-going media and upgrade costs
with disk cartridges designed for long usage life.

Future proof: The HP RDX Removable Disk Backup System docking station is
designed to work with all current and future higher capacity removable disk
cartridges so the system is fully multi-generational.

stations specified for more than 10,000 load and unload cycles and

and long life expectancy.
